*The cafeteria, before the semifinals. Adam is sitting at a table eating by himself.*
Pharrell Williams

Staaand up and maaan up! The one time it’s cool to fall! In looove…

*Adam keeps looking at his food.*
Adam Levine

Pharrell Goddamn Williams. What do you want?

Pharrell Williams

Nothin’ much, I just wanted to chat with the face of one of the greatest bands in the world! You don’t mind, do you?

Adam Levine

I do mind. Actually, I’m not hungry anymore. I’m gonna go.

*Someone touches Adam’s arm. He looks to his left and glares at Quote.*

The King for a Day Tournament


*The scene is the Gaylord Hotel’s night bar. Adam Levine is sitting in a comfortable chair. He’s on the phone.*
Adam Levine

…Yeah, Mickey, can’t believe I accepted their gig as contestant. Seriously, pitting me in front of literal cats and having them win is pretty humiliating.

Adam Levine

…Nah, they said they already had judges. I really wonder what kind of judges they were, I mean I have experience.

Adam Levine

…Yeah, thank God this tournament isn’t seen by millions. Just some nerds who were hating on me to begin with.

Adam Levine

…I mean, apparently it was the head honcho who wanted me in. But who cares about him? I lost immediately anyway.

Adam Levine

…Don’t worry, Mickey, I’ll be back soon. Nice. Thanks. See ya.

Adam Levine

Invite received from on high, Adam Levine aims for the lead! Actually, at first, he wanted to be one of the judges for the tournament, but after he failed the interview by disapproving every contestant, we had to deny him such a position. Nonetheless, with his stubborn attitude and his Jagger-esque moves, he certainly isn’t messing around in, what he wishes was his, tournament.
